mentary occupies a unique space on the Christian's bookshelf. While it is grounded in a thorough understanding of the original text of Scripture, it does not intend to duplicate the content found in more technical commentaries. Instead, Jay Adams has given us an intensely practical study, explaining how Scripture meets the needs of those to whom the pastor and biblical counselor minister both in the counseling room and from the pulpit.

The entire commentary series is written in Jay Adams' trademark style-clear, exegetically accurate, and accessible to all. Do not let the title mislead you into thinking this series is only for those who minister. Any believer who desires to understand the Scriptures in order to live pleasing to God will be richly rewarded by studying His Word with Dr. Adams.
